Published in 1889, it is a humorous account of a boating holiday on the Thames between Kingston and Oxford. Despite being over 130 years old, its humor still holds up quite well to anyone with a preference for dry, British wit.The three men are based on Jerome himself (the narrator J.) and two real-life friends, George Wingrave (who went on to become a senior manager in Barclays Bank) and Carl Hentschel (the founder of a London printing business, called Harris in the book), with whom Jerome often took boating trips. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictional, but "as Jerome admits, developed out of that area of inner consciousness which, in all Englishmen, contains an element of the dog." The trip is a typical boating holiday of the time in a Thames camping skiff. This is just after commercial boat traffic on the Upper Thames had died out, replaced by the 1880s craze for boating as a leisure activity.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Because of the overwhelming success of Three Men in a Boat, Jerome later published a sequel, about a cycling tour in Germany, titled Three Men on the Bummel.Provides examples of: | |
